How do I set an Avatar? I hate not having my own little picture to show.

"One arguement can ruin a whole life"

If you go to User Center that is at the top of the page you will find where you can put in 4 pics. Once you have selected your pic(s) and they have been approved you can choose from the pic(s) that you put in as to which one you want to show up on the left with your name!!!

USER CENTRE is just under the 'sell it' button at the very top-
I am wondering as well why do avatars need to be approved? Previously this was the only way to post any sort of image but now that any image can be so readily posted- instantly is this practice perhaps dated?
Just my $0.02 worth.

It isn't dated because only I can edit or delete avatars, so if there are ten of them that are innapropriate then it is a large job to go in and find them.

The forums have many admins so many people can delete images.

Also, the validity of your avatar is more personal than posting an image in a forum and I don't think most people would want all the admins to be able to decide whether they should or should not use what they use.
